Industrial Remediation

The remediation construction service group focuses on specific environmental issues that are a direct result of on-site production activities. The group provides an experienced team of professionals with the direction and project management know-how to tackle unique environmental challenges.

REMEDIATION CONSTRUCTION SERVICES PROVIDE:

Environmentally Sensitive Demolition
Hazardous wastes, toxic residuals, and unknown materials are removed prior to demolishing a facility. During the demolition phase every attempt is made to dismantle vessels/equipment and to recycle as much of the material as possible.

Dredging
K&D is experienced in managing waste in ponds, lagoons and on waterways. Both hydraulic and mechanical dredging processes are available and can be used in conjunction with geo-tubes for de-watering. Many situations call for sheet piling to be employed to support, isolate, and contain an area while dredging operations are in progress.

Soil Excavation & Disposal
For well over twenty years, K&D has excavated and transported a variety of contaminated and hazardous materials to disposal/treatment locations throughout the Midwest from numerous State and private party sites.

Dewatering & Solidification
The process of removing water from a water-based material (soil). Dewatering can involve chemical processes for the aggregation of solids followed by mechanical separation. Solidification involves mixing a binding agent with a waste product in order to absorb the liquids and produce a non-leachable material.

Facility Decommissioning & Closure
K&D’s extensive water blasting and vacuum equipment expertise are an invaluable resource when it comes to cleaning plant equipment and decontaminating production facilities. Projects include:

Removing surface contamination from concrete prior to demolition

Cleaning plant equipment before removal

Eliminating contaminants and debris from plant interiors and roofs

Removing mercury contaminated equipment

Characterization consolidation and removal of vagrant containers and other hazardous waste

Other in-plant decontamination activities include the identification and removal of AST’s & UST’s throughout the facility.
